Specific Instructions: Identify the factor/s affecting the supply and/or demand for each of the underlined good or service Start from an initial equilibrium market condition (see figure below) and then illustrate the shift/s in the supply and/or demand curve/s Assume equal magnitude of shift in the supply and demand curves. Label all figures and use an arrow to show the direction of the shift. P X 1. Onion farmers in Occidental Mindoro and Ilocos Sur used high-yielding varieties and adopted the Code of Good Agricultural Practices (GAP) for onion production. 2. The African Swine Fever (ASF) forced many hog raisers to perform culling. On the other hand, the government increased the minimum access volume and lowered the tariffs for pork. 3. The Department of Agriculture installed tramlines in cabbage-growing areas in the northern area of the Philippines. This resulted in farmers being able to bring down their produce for pick-up by traders along the highways.

The figure depicts the market for gasoline. Suppose that consumers expect the price of gasoline to decrease in the future. What effect will this event have supply and demand in the gasoline market? Demonstrate your answer graphically Instructions: Use the tool provided 'New line' to draw either a new demand or supply curve that reflects the market effect of this event. Plot only the endpoints of the line.
The following graph input tool shows the daily demand for hotel rooms at the Oceans Hotel and Casino in Atlantic City, New Jersey. To help the hotel management better understand the market, an economist identified three primary factors that affect the demand for rooms each night. These demand factors, along with the values corresponding to the initial demand curve, are shown in the following table and alongside the graph input tool. Demand FactorInitial ValueAverage American household income$50,000 per yearRoundtrip airfare from Pittsburgh (PIT) to Atlantic City (ACY)$250 per roundtripRoom rate at the Meadows Hotel and Casino, which is near the Oceans$250 per night For each of the following scenarios, begin by assuming that all demand factors are set to their original values and Oceans is charging $100 per room per night. If average household income increases by 20%, from $50,000 to $60,000 per year, the quantity of rooms demanded at the Oceans____ from rooms per night to______rooms…
Subject: Manegerial Economics & Policy The maker of a leading brand of low-calorie microwavable food estimated the following demand equation for its product using data from 26 supermarkets around the country for the month of April: Q = -5,200 - 42P + 20PX + 5.2l + 0.20A + 0.25M (2.002) (17.5) (6.2) (2.5) (0.09) (0.21) R2 = 0.55 n = 26 F = 4.88 Assume the following values for the independent variables: Q = Quantity sold per month P (in cents) = Price of the product = 500 PX (in cents) = Price of leading competitor’s product = 600 I (in dollars) = Per capita income of the standard metropolitan statistical area (SMSA) in which the supermarket is located = 5,500 A (in dollars) = Monthly advertising expenditure = 10,000 M = Number of microwave ovens sold in the SMSA in which the supermarket is located = 5,000 Using this information, answer the following questions: Compute elasticities for each variable. Do you think that this firm should cut its price to increase its market…

DVANCED ANALYSIS Assume that demand for a commodity is represented by the equation P=80−2Qd.�=80−2��.Supply is represented by the equation P=−20+2Qs,�=−20+2��,where Qd and Qs are quantity demanded and quantity supplied, respectively, and P is price.Instructions: Round your answer for price to 2 decimal places and enter your answer for quantity as a whole number. Using the equilibrium condition Qs = Qd, solve the equations to determine equilibrium price and equilibrium quantity. Equilibrium price = $ Equilibrium quantity = units
Explain the impact of the following conditions on the market demand and price of given products and sub-parts aswell: The impact of decrease in income of a household on the market demand and market equilibrium price of an inferior product. The impact of an increase in the price of Yamaha motorcycles on the demand and market price of Honda motorcycles. The impact of Covid-19 on the market demand for hand sanitizer. Note: Just explain justify your answers theoretically. There is no need to provide graphical analysis.
The price of oil is currently over $80 per barrel and has been as high as $90 per barrel after Saudi Arabia and a couple of oter OPEC countries reduced output this year. The demand for oil is expected to increase by 1 million barely per day over the next year according to the International Energy Agency but OPEC+ has been unclear about its intentions of increasing oil supplies. a. If OPEC+ increases its production by million barrels per day, we can unambiguously say that the equilibrium price will fall, and the equilibrium quantity will rise.
Note: this is an economics question. *What were the policy responses used to combat the shortage of hand sanitizer, masks and disinfectant products during the covid-19 pandemic? *Explan.

Determine the general equilibrium price of a tie and suit b. What is the type of relationship between a tie and a suit? Explain your argument
###PLEASE CHECK IMAGE FOR CORRECT EQUATION In class, we estimated the per-capita demand function for watermelons (in natural logs) to be????? = ―3.7 ― 1.02???? + 1.6????? ― 0.75?????where P is the price of watermelon ?? is per capita income, and ?? is the freight price. Suppose the natural log of the supply curve is given by ????? = 1.2 + 0.6????.Please answer both of these: 1) What is the cross-price elasticity of freight and what does it say about whether freight is a complement or substitute? What is the income elasticity of watermelon demand and what does it say about whether watermelon is an inferior versus normal or luxury good? 2) Hold the per capita income and freight prices equal to their sample means: 800 and 16, respectively. What is the equilibrium price and quantity?
onsider the supply function: Qs = 60 + 5P – 12 PI + 10F , Where Qs = quantity supplied, P = price of the commodity, PI = price of a key input in the production process, and F = number of firms producing the commodity. Interpret the slope parameters on P, PI, and F. Derive the equation for the supply function when PI =$90 and F = 20. Sketch a graph of the supply function in part b. At what price does the supply curve intersect the price axis? Give an interpretation of the price intercept of this supply curve. Using the supply function from part b, calculate the quantity supplied when the price of the commodity is $300 and $500. Derive the inverse of the supply function in part b. using the inverse supply function; calculate the supply price for 680 units of the commodity. Give an interpretation of the supply price.
